Raynald Leconte

Eve Blouin

Awarded Best Feature Documentary at the 2014 Big Apple Film Festival in New York City, In the Eye of the Spiral examines a new philosophical movement born in Haiti called Spiralism. In a country affected by corruption and natural disaster, this film shows the will of Haitian artists who produce art as a personal journey toward redemption and survival. The story is told through the voices of contemporary Haitian artists, and is narrated by Annie Lennox with music by Brian Eno. Filmmakers Eve Blouin and Raynald Leconte will answer questions after the screening.

The Film and Media Screening Series is supported by the Diversity Council, the Student-Faculty Corporation, the School of Liberal Arts, the Department of Film, Media and Performing Arts, and the Department of Modern Languages and Cultures.

All screenings are free and open to the public.
